Handsome brick ranch in Southgate with three bedrooms, one and a half baths, a wide open kitchen, and a private backyard you will not want to leave. Covered front porch with brick columns and stone accents sets a welcoming tone right from the curb. Step inside to a bright living room with gorgeous hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and a big front window that pulls in natural light all day. Open kitchen and adjoining dining area with tile counters, plenty of cabinet space, stainless steel appliances, and a wall of windows that keeps the whole space sunny. Side entry off the kitchen makes an easy everyday drop zone. Three comfortable bedrooms with hardwood floors and generous closet space share a full bath down the hall, done in classic black and white tile with a crisp hex tile floor. Head downstairs to a partially finished basement made for game nights and parties, complete with a long bar and built-in stools, warm wood paneling, a half bath, laundry area, and lots of storage. Out back, a brick paver patio with a cedar pergola sits alongside brick-edged garden beds and a fenced yard, with a covered carport running the length of the drive and a detached two-car garage at the rear. Pergola stays with the home. Welcome Home!
